Chapter 432: Meeting with the Vice President
When Zhang Pei saw Yu Zhan's expression, she thought her makeup was not done well, so she wanted to go back to her room to look in the mirror and fix it.
"Wait for me for another minute, I'll tidy up my appearance," she said to Yu Zhan.
"No, no, you are perfect the way you are now. You make me feel refreshed."
Zhang Pei thought Yu Zhan was being polite and said with a smile, "I haven't used cosmetics for many years. My makeup skills have regressed a bit, and I don't really understand the current makeup trends."
"No, no, no, your skills haven't regressed at all. I think the makeup you put on has a retro feel, especially like the calendar stars of the last century."
Yu Zhan's expression was quite serious, he really thought Zhang Pei looked good in this look. She had been a little fat before, but after taking over the cat food business, she was too busy with work and lost weight unknowingly. Her tall and thin figure made her look particularly young in a professional suit. Her cool crew cut, coupled with her retro makeup, gave her a bit of sharp intellectual beauty. Just looking at her appearance, who would have thought that her daughter is already that big?
"You are so good at talking. You praised me so much that I almost lost my mind."
Zhang Pei said this, but she was very happy in her heart. Women of all ages like to be praised for their appearance. She understood Yu Zhan's character and knew that he was not the kind of person who liked to say sweet words. He said this because he really approved of her look.
Zhang Pei would not be so narcissistic as to think that she could regain her youth. She should look her age. If she never gets old, then she is an old witch. However, being praised by Yu Zhan can boost her self-confidence.

John drove to pick up Yu Zhan and Zhang Pei to go to Xishilan Company. When John saw Zhang Pei, he smiled and instinctively said in Cantonese, "What a pretty sister."
Yu Zhan laughed.
Zhang Pei looked at him with confusion.
John explained in broken Mandarin, "You look so beautiful when you dress up. No wonder your daughter is a star! Like mother, like daughter."
Although Hong Kong people don't pay much attention to the mainland entertainment and Internet celebrity circles, John also registered a Weibo account because he has business dealings with Liu Man and they are of the same age. He occasionally checks Liu Man's Weibo and knows that she is not only an Internet celebrity, but also filming a movie. She is the leading actress hand-picked by Lin Zhi, who is also very famous in Hong Kong. John thinks Liu Man is amazing. In addition, "Listen, the Sound of the Wind" will be released in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia in early October. Now major cinemas in Hong Kong have begun to warm up, and John plans to take his girlfriend to watch it.
Huang Shiting's eyes also brightened when he saw Zhang Pei. He saw the shadow of Liu Lan in this face that looked a bit old.
In the conference room of Xisilan Company, Zhang Pei and Yu Zhan met Mr. Peter, the vice president of Cat'Garden Company. Peter's full name is Peter Atkinson. He is the boss of Cat'Garden Company who is in charge of sales. He is in a high position and has great power. Naturally, this man has an aura that is different from ordinary people.
He was probably in his fifties, quite tall, with dark hair that was combed neatly, grey-blue eyes, and gold-rimmed glasses. He wore black trousers and a grey shirt, which was buttoned up meticulously, making him look quite serious.
Prior to this, Mr. Peter had attended the annual meeting with Sisilan Company. He delayed his departure from Hong Kong for one day just to meet Yu Zhan and Zhang Pei.
Yu Zhan had spoken to him on the phone beforehand, and he knew that this time it was the Chinese girl's mother who signed the contract on her behalf. The mother was younger than he had imagined, and her temperament was very unique. The moment she came in, he couldn't help but look at her.
Huang Shiting brought the people in and left the meeting room, leaving the three people with space for the meeting.
Yu Zhan acted as an interpreter and introduced Peter and Zhang Pei to each other.
Peter smiled and held out his hand, looking very gentlemanly, "It's an honor to meet you, ma'am."
Zhang Pei understood such a simple greeting. She smiled as well, shook his hand, and replied in her unfamiliar and accented English, "Nice to meet you, too."
Peter seemed surprised that she could speak a little English and smiled.
